Planet Fitness is planning a December opening for a new club in Mount Pleasant, at 2135 Mission St., located next to Staples.

The club will offer special pre-sale memberships for just $1 down and $10 a month with no commitment. The pre-sale office will open Monday, Nov. 2, with the club scheduled to open by the end of the year.

Once open, the 16,000-square-foot club will be fully staffed and open 24 hours, seven days a week, and feature an extensive selection of the latest cardio equipment including treadmills, ellipticals, arc trainers and stationary bikes. Every cardio machine will be connected to an entertainment system with multiple 65-inch widescreen HD televisions.

Planet Fitness also offers upper and lower body strength machines, a 30-minute PF Express circuit, an abdominal and stretching area, and a PF Black Card Spa, with multi-level tanning, Red Light therapy booths, HydroMassage�beds and massage chairs. Unlimited fitness training is also included in all memberships at no additional charge.

“We’re proud to bring another new club to the area,” said club owner Chris Klebba.”Our mission is to offer anyone and everyone a friendly, non-intimidating atmosphere to exercise at a very affordable price.”

Planet Fitness is known for its judgment free atmosphere, and features a “Lunk Alarm,” a purple and yellow siren on the wall used to remind people that grunting, dropping weights or judging others is not permitted.

Planet Fitness provides free pizza on the first Monday of every month, and free bagels on the second Tuesday of every month, while supplies last.
